It was about seven pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were relaxing talking about the recent footy results, waiting around for the next job of the day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Harpole and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Smart rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was rather agitated it seemed, stating "I can not believe that I have destroyed the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things sadly happen. She had managed to move the car to a safe area and, as it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we were able to find the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off calm and not so worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Northamptonshire well done in my mind!

Listed here are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it if you?ve put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that?s made of a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water.It is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, causing serious and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

In case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And certainly take care not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it to a parking area. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to deal with in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations quite quickly.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in Northamptonshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a storage shed, as long as we can reach it, we are able to empty it.
